Well you woke up in the morning
hear the big bell ring,
you go marching to the table
see the same damn thing
Well its on a one table
knife and fork and a pan
And if you say a thing about it
youre in trouble with the man
Let the Midnight Special
shine her light on me
Let the Midnight Special
shine her ever
lovin light on me
Let the Midnight Special
shine her ever
lovin light on me
Let the Midnight Special
shine her ever
lovin light on me
If you ever go to Houston
youd better walk right
and you better not stagger
and you better not fight
Cause the sheriff will
arrest you
and hell carry you down
and you can bet your bottom
dollar youre Sugarl and bound
so Let the Midnight Special
shine her light on me
Let the Minding Special
shine her ever lovin
light on me
<interlude>
Yonder come miss Rosie
how in the world did you know?
By the way she wears her apron
and the clothes she wore
Umbrella on her shoulder
piece of paper in her hand
She come to see the govnor
she wants to free her man
so Let the Midnight Special
shine a light on me
Let the Midnight Special
shine a light on me
Let the Midnight Special
shine a light on me
Let the Midnight Special
shine a everlovin light on me
Let the Midnight Special
shine a light on me
Let the Midnight Special
shine a light on me
